For those of you interested in test-driving the WinAPRS Software, the following quick-start configuration notes may be helpful.

For most APRS software versions, you will need to download the marathon map (below) and copy it to the \MAPS\ folder within your APRS directory. The other maps are provided simply for your library, and are not required for the marathon project.
